Object of the game: Be the team who tags the most people.
Number of players: As many as possible, the more the merrier.
Set up: Divide the group into two teams of at least two people each. Each team must have a cell phone, a sheet of paper and a pencil. Exchange team phone numbers and program them into speed dial. Agree on a home base and then decide how long you want the game to last. Next, set boundaries for the playing field (mall, park, neighborhood, etc.).
How to play: To start, teams go and hide. You are on the prowl to spot the other teams and tag them without being seen! When you see another team, “tag” them by calling their cell phone. You must speak to the team directly (no voice messages) and describe exactly where they’re hiding. If the other team sees you, the tag doesn’t count and they must give you two minutes to hide before they can tag you back. Record your tags and the locations on your sheet of paper. Continue tagging (and avoiding being tagged) until the time is up. At the end of the game, meet back at the home base. The team with the most tag wins!
